The Claim
The human thyroid gland evolved under selective pressures from a high-fat, animal-based diet rich in zinc, iron, and magnesium, implying that these nutrients are optimal for maintaining proper thyroid function.
What the research says
Not yet evaluated
We are still looking at what the research says.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Your thyroid evolved when humans ate lots of animal foods high in zinc, iron, and magnesium, so these nutrients might be the best for keeping it working well.
